240 Hours in One Day (1970)
The Radar read
A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.
Synopsis
The final collaboration between Hiroshi Teshigahara and Kobo Abe, 240 Hours in a Day is a four-panel projection produced for the 1970 Osaka Expo. Set in the near future, a scientist invents an accelerator that increases the speed of human activity tenfold.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
